Firefly Aerospace is a space and defense technology company headquartered in Leander, Texas, that launches, lands and operates space systems from Earth to the Moon. Founded in 2017, it builds the Alpha small-lift and Eclipse medium-lift rockets, the Blue Ghost lunar landers, and the Elytra line of orbital vehicles. In March 2025 it became the first commercial company to complete a fully successful upright Moon landing, and it went public later that year at a valuation above $6 billion. Its customers include NASA, national security and defense agencies, and commercial satellite operators.
What sets it apart
Firefly reuses a common set of flight-proven propulsion and avionics technologies across rockets, landers and orbital vehicles, and builds and tests them at co-located Texas facilities, which lets it iterate in a single day and offer responsive space access, including a satellite launched on 24-hour notice and the first fully successful commercial Moon landing.
A small-lift, two-stage orbital launch vehicle designed for responsive, dedicated launches of small satellites to low Earth orbit.
